The pivoting side mount (26) includes first and second pivot brackets (152, 150) that are rotatably connected to one another and a spring (154), such as a rubber spring, for limiting the rotating movement of the two brackets relative to one another. A quick release assembly (28) is also provided. The quick release assembly (28) includes a receiver (30) and a body (40) that fits into the receiver. The body (40) includes one or more latches (42) that are biased outward and that snap into notches (44) in the receiver (30) when the body (40) is placed in the receiver (30).

Publication number: 20050274388Abstract: An anterior trunk support. The anterior trunk support is shaped like a vest and is formed of non-stretch or limited stretch material over a lower portion that extends over the upper belly and lower ribs of a user, and stretch material that extends from the non-stretch material to over the shoulders of the user. In this manner, a wearer may lean slightly forward, with the stretchable shoulder portion flexibly permitting such movement. The lower section may be stretchable in a width dimension only. As such, the lower section provides movement for user's respiration, thus providing additional comfort. By not stretching in the vertical direction, the anterior trunk support does not slide up the wearer's chest when tension is applied to the upper stretchable material. Thus, comfort is maintained, and the lower section does not approach the neck of the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 31, 2005Publication date: December 15, 2005Applicant: Bodypoint Designs, Inc.Inventor: Matthew Kosh

Patent number: 6665913Abstract: An end-fitting buckle having a cam cover that allows webbing to be inserted when the cam cover is in an up position. After inserted, a free end of the webbing is pulled to tighten the webbing while the cover is in an intermediate position. The cover may then be closed to lock both the free end and load end. When the cover is locked, movement of the load end is prevented by teeth in the cam cover. The teeth lock the free end into place, holding the set position of the webbing. The cover design also promotes use of varied thicknesses of webbing, because the cam action of the cover utilizes friction between the two ends of the webbing instead of a pinching action.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2002Date of Patent: December 23, 2003Assignee: Bodypoint Designs, Inc.Inventors: Matthew Kosh, John N.
